Abstract
A scissors-like handle tool manipulates a ZIF socket having a cover slidably engaged with a bottom, between a loosened status and a tightened status. The handle tool comprises a first lever arm pivotably connected to a second lever arm. The handle tool is operated by encountering two lower ends of the first and second lever arms with two movable sides of the socket via a pivot operation of the handle tool thereby moving the cover of the ZIF socket along the bottom.
